Is it possible to not only “get through” the tough times in life, but grow from them?Yes. Post Traumatic Growth is real.

Can’t we just skip over the hard part and get to the good stuff in life?Not really. We see evidence all around us of the discomfort that’s a normal part of growth.

Couldn’t we simply hide out from life’s tough times, and keep growing anyway?Not for very long. Eventually, growth will find us and nudge (or push) us along our path.

Then… why bother?

That’s part of why people like me -- therapists, counselors, and others who have chosen helping professions -- do what we do: We believe there are good reasons you should bother with the process of life growth. In some cases, our belief is based on personal experience as well as professional training.

Committed to changing the way mental wellness services are made accessible to all people:

A sliding fee scale for those in need -- fees based on household income & size -- ask me about it!

Joined with other local counseling professionals who believe in making licensed therapy more accessible -- the Affordable Counseling Collaborative Associates, providing services in an area that stretches from Galveston County to Clear Lake to West University/Bellaire to Katy/Cypress.
